Stettbach railway station (German: Bahnhof Stettbach) is a railway station on the north-eastern boundary of the Swiss city of Zürich. Although the station is located just within the city boundary, in the city's Schwamendingen district, it takes its name from the nearby village of Stettbach, which is in the adjacent municipality of Dübendorf.[3][4]

History
Stettbach station, along with the Zürichberg Tunnel and the connecting railway on which the station is situated, were opened in 1990. At the same time Zürich Stadelhofen station was connected by the Hirschengraben Tunnel to new through low level platforms at Zürich Hauptbahnhof, thus creating the through west-east backbone of the Zürich S-Bahn.[5] In conjunction with the opening of the Glattalbahn in 2010,[6] the tram and bus station on the surface were rebuilt.
Operation
The station is on the Zürichberg line, which links Zürich Stadelhofen station, in central Zürich, with Dietlikon and Dübendorf stations. The station has a single platform below ground level, served by two tracks, and at the southern end of the station the railway tracks enter the 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) Zürichberg Tunnel to Zürich Stadelhofen.
The station is served by the following lines of the Zürich S-Bahn:[7]
- S3 (Bülach –) Hardbrücke – Zürich HB – Effretikon – Wetzikon
- S9 (Schaffhausen –) Rafz – Hardbrücke – Zürich HB – Uster
- S11 Aarau – Lenzburg – Dietikon – Zürich HB – Zürich Stettbach – Winterthur – Seuzach / Sennhof-Kyburg (– Wila)
- S12 Brugg AG – Zürich HB – Zürich Stettbach – Winterthur – Schaffhausen / Wil SG
All lines are operated by the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB).[8] During weekends, there are also four nighttime S-Bahn service (SN1, SN5, SN6, SN9) offered by ZVV.[9]

Adjacent to the station at ground-level are the termini of two of Zurich's tram routes. Route 7 is owned and operated by the Verkehrsbetriebe Zürich (VBZ) and links Stettbach to central Zürich via the Schwamendingen district. Route 12 is operated by VBZ on behalf of the Glattalbahn (VBG), and links Stettbach to Zurich Airport, via Wallisellen and Glattbrugg in the increasingly urbanised Glattal region.[11] Several bus routes also depart from the ground-level station.
Future plans
Zürich Zoo, situated on the Zürichberg mountain above the tunnel, has plans to construct a cable car to link the zoo and station, a distance of about 2 km (1.2 mi).[12] As of 2023,[update] the cable car is expected to open in 2028.[13]
